Undiscovered Rhodes: 10 places to visit away from the crowds
The island of Rhodes has lots of well known tourist spots but there’s also a lot that’s undiscovered by the main summer tourist crowds. Away from the main resorts there’s a very different island to be found. Beautiful places that haven’t changed for decades, where you’ll receive a warm welcome in local tavernas with real Greek food. Discover beaches where you won’t be falling over people to get to the clear blue waters. Find hidden camping spots and beautiful walks.
Experience Lindos medieval festival – Rhodes, Greece
There’s a lot more to Lindos that the Acropolis and beautiful beaches. Every year on Father’s day the village holds a medieval festival. Jugglers, musicians, kings and queens parade through torchlit narrow alley ways. Enjoy a night of medieval entertainment.
4 years living on a Greek island
4 years ago we checked in lots of suitcases and 3 cats at Doha airport and began our Greek adventure. We had no idea how long the adventure would last. We thought maybe a year and then we’d be moving on. But, 4 years later and one more house move, we’re still here.
Folklore Museum of Lardos
The Folklore Museum of Lardos is a glimpse into local rural life before tourism came to the south of the island. Owner and curator Panagiotis Loukaras has spent years collecting and writing about the history of the local area.
Experience the Jungle Tour of Rhodes
If your looking for something a little different to do away from the beach then the Jungle Tour of Rhodes could be for you. Escape for the day and let Nikos Papas your guide take you to a very different side of the island.
I joined The English Speaking Association of Rhodes on a trip into the jungle near Archangelos. A fun day out that is suitable for all ages, but it’s a not a trip for everyone. You’ll need a sense of humour, a sense of adventure

Deserted Italian History – Rhodes, Greece
If you want to escape from the heat of summer head into the hills and you can explore a bit of modern history. Well, modern by Greek standards! There’s no tour guide, no signposts or heritage signs.

Many who think of Rhodes think of the Old Town and it’s cobbled streets, but there’s a side to the New Town outside the medieval walls that may surprise many. Yesterday was another sunny July morning. We headed up to Rhodes town to do some shopping. The...Exploring Rhodes – Plimiri and the south east coast
Looking to get away from the tourist trail and for a quiet spot for lunch we took an afternoon drive.
With no real plan in our heads we just headed south. Following the coast we drove through Gennadi. We went past the holiday villas that have sprung up along the main road towards the turning to Lahania.
